in thread Interpolating subroutine call in SQL INSERT INTO SELECT statement

If you truley need a perl function to do the job, you'll have to do a select in one call. And then prep an insert data set for a second call.

That is what I suspected, but I'm very new to Perl and still far from sure of what is and isn't possible.

Thanks again for the advice. I appreciate it.
